Images of the Sarawak heartland

IT TOOK two years for former business journalist Bob Teoh to come up with the photo essay titled Between Two Rivers that is being featured in a month-long exhibition.

Teoh, who has been taking photos since his early school days after receiving a camera as a birthday gift from his parents, said during his working days, a friend had suggested that he visit Lumbawang in Ba’ Kelalan as it was a beautiful place not known to many.

"I went there and discovered that what my friend had told me was true – it was so beautiful. I promised myself then that I would return to take photos of the place," said Teoh, 59.
